How about the Leo's compass and graphic performence ? - HD2 General

In the HTC official Leo Spec, it has digital compass. Does Leo's compass work as the same as Iphone 3GS(not using gps)?
I am using touch hd, and I enjoy NeoS2007 Pack3. Is the HTC Leo's graphic driver best enough for the graphic performence?

yes and about the graphic performence: it's definetely better than on the HD.

Yeah well. But will HTC pull another qualcolm on us and make the HD2 a device without full drivers?

Have any of you check out the HTC HD2 reveiw at SoloPalmari. It's in Italian, but you can use Google translator to read the the three part review.
If you can't read it for some reason, send me your email and I will send you a pdf of the article. I would post it on the site, but due to copy right issues, I wont'.
cheers.
btw, I have pre ordered the HTC HD2 with Clove.

Depends on what you mean by "full drivers". It's already a known fact that the HD2 has hardware-accelerated OpenGL ES 1.1. What's not known is whether it has video decode acceleration or not - but from what I've seen I'd say not. Apparently the Toshiba TG01 does, though. Although TBH, it might not matter all that much considering how fast Snapdragon is anyway.

maybe the official Leo Roms can show the details
In Htcpedia, the official multiple languages can be downloaded from the link:
http://htcpedia.com/news/official-htc-hd2-wm6_5-rom.html
Maybe some experts can tell us the details in the ROMs, and show his/her evaluation.

Yeah, but to fork out a huge amount of money, I'd rather that the full hardware capabilities are being made use of. I don't want the HD2 to be like my HD. A device with huge potential but locked.

yeah...it's really cool , but HTC announced that TOUCH DIAMOND uses some kind of 3d graphic card to perform this kind of mind-blowing 3d touch-flo ... so I think that something like this will work only on 3dgraphiccard-have devices

HTC devices with Qualcomm 7200 or 7500 CPU have integrated 3D graphics accelerator but no drivers available yet.

Maybe someone can work around a flash interface for that, without any hardware 3D as requirement.
Anyway I do agree: it's a great-looking effect for sure.
Cool!
If someone can try and extract it from one of those ROMS, we can test it!!
That looks awesome!
Cheers!
If the HTC Diamon where actually released into the wild!
Come on people it's still not out, stop requesting Roms/Apps until the official release date.
People have extracted the Opera browser already, and there are devices out and about. If someone knows where a ROM dump is...
I think our best bet right now if for someone to create the apps independently. What's on the diamond is the TouchFLO #D app which is all inclusive of messaging, contacts, media, and more.
Just like developers here were able to port the look and feel of the iPhone's coverflow mediaplayer with S2P and also S2U2. It takes time to develop, but in time we will get them.

We wont have to go all the way through incremental stages from 1.3 to 2.0.
2.0 will be a new interface and should come in the first half of next year.

A number of previous versions have said Qtv support, but the 'support' is akin to holding up the world with a drinking straw.. not very effective.
..and beware: if you buy it now it will still be v1.2.5!
...However it was a due act anyway...
...part II: indeed - on the website they advertise for 1.3.0, but if you proceed and download....surprise ...
Damn you guys are fast ;-)
We are working on publishing the 1.3 release now.... but yeah you got headsup reading the changelog page on CP.com ;-) We are changing the text on the resellers now and are getting ready to push publish it with them... it will show up on Mobihand first and current users will be notified by email when its published.

Thats a funny laugh coming from someone who just requested the warez version of CorePlayer 1.3 on another forum before it was even released. Yeah... it might not be a 'smart' thing to register with the same nick on different forums, especially warez forums.
1.3 has now been published on Mobihand.com.... anyone that has purchased it (thanks for your support) can now login on their site to download the update.

Please be polite... the Mobihand has a dropdown that asks what model of device and offers HTC Touch HD but when you select it... it tells you that the device is NOT compatible. I'm not a fool to be reluctant to pay for something that is not comfirmed to work... if Beta-boy confirms it works with the HTC Touch HD then I will buy.
OK.... looks like Mobihand is updated now... here I come CorePlayer!

Ocarina "Flute" on HD2 ?

I will buy this phone when an Ocarina App is avialable with multi tuch.
like the Iphone it should be simalar apps for the HD2,
Either someone start making some apps Now or create a program that can run all the iphone apps on HD2. That way everyone will be happy
Please... Can someone create an app like Ocarina.
http://www.gametrailers.com/user-movie/iphone-ocarina-zelda-on-iphone/286883
Thank you so much in advance.
It's not so easy. Leo does not have real multi touch. WM does not support any API for that. Leo only has single touch with pinch zoom, and that's it.
Nothing like spending $800-900 for a phone just to play with a crappy flute app.
...are you sure you're in the right forum? Apple is that way ------>

Leo DOES have multi-touch.
It's nothing to do with the phone. As you state yourself "WM does not support any API for that." That is correct. Once that issue is resolved, there will be true multi-touch apps.
Like you, I'm waiting for this kind of applications for HD2, too. Can't wait to load someting similar (or exactly the same!) to iPhone's Bebot Robot Synth. Check out Jordan Rudess' videos at Youtube (keyboard player of Dream Theater).

It is different then G-sensor or compass .. because those are used in HTC applications and you can use HTC's DLL to work with that. No HTC application supports real multitouch at the moment. Until some does, I'm rather skeptical about such API.

If the hardware can do it, then the software can do it. It simply means that no-one has developed something yet.
Since the HD2 is the hardware, to state that the HD2 is not true multi-touch is incorrect. That's all I'm saying.
I don't see what this debate about not having a multitouch api and needing to use HTC DLLs is about. The ability to build multitouch applications for Leo came quite a while ago: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591698
Two-fingered drawing... means that the device can plot two points at once and not just the distance between them. And there's the demo source in the link.

That's not full multi-touch. It's dual-touch. FULL multi-touch can detect more than 2 presses at the same time. That's what we've been discussing.
No multitouch
Do you know wtf you are taliking about?
Do you even have a Leo?

There have always been crappy apps for WM, but I avoid them, as, I avoided iphone.
If iphone could multitask, you would be in real trouble running a dozen crappy apps. You would have to be constanly doing apple software conflict resolution.

WP7 on HD2 from XDA.CN and its not hoax!

Great news for me at least as it seems that WP7 on the HD2 is alive and well. Here is a video showing it booting up fairly similar to how we boot up android. It has not been released yet but from the new on this website it is not far off. I assure you it is all very legit and will be here soon. I used google chrome to visit these sites as it auto translates so let the actual countdown begin. this is exciting for me at least as I think HD2 was and still is the best mobile HTC ever made. this thing runs Android, WM6.5 and WP7!

Yead and they it will be available by end of the next week... in our dreams of course...
SO when ?!
So when finally we can use one of these WP7 ?!?
it is taking much more than I expected !
yeah it seems to be working, but seems also quite slow/sluggish compared to, say, the hd7. maybe it's due to the boot from sd
howcome in the video the IE tile has nice graphics while on all other phones i've seen its flat like all other tiles...?
well i am just happy it still alive and well. it does seem a bit sluggish but it is out there and will be available soon. it boots off microsd like android so there will be flaws. like android however it will work well. seeing that the htc hd7 had a microsd as its internal memory( pictures on the web to confirm) we should be very optimistic to have this running near perfect on HD2

old build
this looks like an old build that's running on the HD2. that's why the IE icon looks different and also that's why it's slower. the newer builds have performance improvements. let's hope they get the final build running on it too.
also, did you notice the other phone in the video (Mozart) had AT&T branding on the hardware, but Telus branding on the software

I don't know if you've noticed, but this xda.cn thread is from today.
I am confused
is there a wp7 for HD2 or not? the linke is too chinese for me
There is some download link, but even though i have an account on xda.cn - i can't download because of some credis i suppose (google translator ftw.).
sthEn, can you paste some info from the thread here? After translating it off course.
"3 files I've downloaded, to be sure the file is uploaded to the excellent eggs today"
There should be some mirrors soon thanks to one of the xda.cn people
Basically, nobody've tested it yet - too soon i guess.
Google translation from the above site:
HTC HD2 takes all three large-scale system to run successfully WP7
Windows Mobilephone the king of the group, has once again implemented a perfect trial run of WP7,HTC HD2 (parameters), the system has successfully transplanted Android 2.2 onto HD2, and now once again is trying to run WP7 for real, HD2 an emperor once again, becomes a focus of attention.
HTC HD2 performance of mobile phone configuration is in full compliance with the requirements of WP7, the screen has a 4.3 inch capacitive touch screen, built-in 1GHz processor and 500 million pixel camera. From the already listed HTC HD7 (parameters)of view, HD2 processor and the same type HD7, HD2's only drawback is its key design which does not meet the physical requirements of WP7, but it will not stop it from running WP7. Time is drawing near, let us work together to cheer!
Damn....I guess I wont get to sleep...This is freaking crazy....
